Overview

A ghost walk of Georgian Liverpool & St James’ Necropolis, The Secret Garden Cemetery Shivers Tour.

An experience that embraces history & folklore, ghostly ghoulish fables, the gruesome chapters of Victorian Public Health and the innovations there in, The Cemetery Shivers Tour explores and dissects the grim narrative of the darker side to Liverpool’s past, and stitches together the beginning middle and end, where death completes us all.

Through the prism of our signature expert storytelling and award winning guiding skills Shiverpool will transport you on a spine-tingling Gothic odyssey through the layers of time and place where spooky spirits dance and storytellers dream & weave their tales in the pale moonlight, a journey you are unlikely to forget…

We will also find hope in the darkness and discover pioneers that really did carve out a legacy giving love life and friendship to the story of Liverpool’s great & good.

    City Boat Tours wants to make your searches as relevant as possible. That's why we offer many ways to help you find the right experiences for you.

    On some pages, you can select how to sort the results we display and also use filter options to see only those search results that meet your chosen preferences. You'll see explanations of what those sort options mean when you select them.

    If you see a Badge of Excellence label, the award is based on average review ratings, share of bookings with a review, and number of bookings through City Boat Tours over a 12-month period.

    The importance of any one factor over any other in a sort order varies, and the balance is constantly being reviewed and adjusted. We're always updating our systems and testing new ways to refine and improve your results to make them as relevant as possible to meet your needs.
